Description
As the world becomes more and more divided over religion and politics, it's vitally important for people of faith to be courageous about sticking to the foundations of their beliefs. So says Dr. Robert Jeffress, Senior Pastor of First Baptist Dallas and a Fox News Contributor. His new book "Courageous" is a ten-step guide to helping Christians develop strategies for not just 'living' but 'striving' in a world that has become more hostile to faith. For example, to "bend, but don't break," "learn from the past," and number one, "don't panic." On this episode of Lighthouse Faith Podcast, Dr. Jeffress also talks politics. He's one of President Donald Trump's close spiritual advisors and supporters. He discusses the President's mood right after he was acquitted in the impeachment trial, and also how to forgive those who persecute you. While many believe religion and politics live in two separate worlds, Jeffress makes it clear that faith is the fuel for any political position.

Pilot Who Should Have Flown Fated Plane On 9/11 Has Faith Strengthened Every Anniversary: Twenty years ago airline pilot Steve Scheibner wrote a life objective. It begins with the words, "To seek trust, and glorify God..." Three years later on September 11, 2001 he was scheduled to co-pilot American Airlines flight 11, but a more senior pilot bumped him from the assignment. That plane flew into the World Trade Center in the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil. Scheibner now lives his life with a sense of urgency, knowing that somebody died in his place. With the 17th observation of 9/11 just a week away, Scheibner joined forces with the American Pastors Network (APN) to help tell the stories that show how God's hand was indeed present that fateful day, even in the midst of incredible turmoil and tragedy. Hear his story on this very special Lighthouse Faith Podcast. by Lighthouse Faith
